Dr. Michael Reichle

Research areas: Cryptography and Information Security

I am a tenure-track faculty member at INSAIT where I am building a dedicated research program in cryptography and information security.

Before joining INSAIT, I was a Postdoc at ETH Zurich under the guidance of Dennis Hofheinz. Previously, I was a PhD student at École Normale Supérieure in Paris under the supervision of Brice Minaud and Michel Abdalla. I wrote my master and bachelor thesis under the supervision of Geoffroy Couteau.
The topic of my PhD was Searchable Encryption with a focus on memory-efficient constructions. My thesis can be found here. My current research focuses on protocols for encryption and signatures (e.g., blind signatures and threshold signatures).
